I think it's fair to say Vale hasn't lost Anything, he still has the skill, craft and determination and its going to be a great year Marc'y boy is already proving he'll be a real challenger to win in his first year, he can only get better and Cal deserves a works bike, his bike is so slow down the straight, I think at some circuits he has a very good chance of a few podiums (and that's on a bike exactly the same as what he was racing last year according to his team) Jorge did what he does best and walked it but I would imagine he be rather concerned when he watches the race later and see's how fast Vale was and how he carved his way through the other Aliens. Dani must be absolutely gutted and its gonna mess his head up unless he can stamp his authority on Marc (which I doubt he will).

Marc will only get faster,he was loving riding the big bike right from the start.
